I’m sure this is a sentiment many in the LGBTQ community relate to. The feeling can stem from a lack of support from family and friends. It may be because of your geographic location. It may be self-inflicted as you stubbornly push people away. I’m not judging; I’ve done it too.
Sometimes loneliness is the result of something as simple as a label.
A label, whether self-adopted or metaphorically plastered on your forehead by someone else, sets you apart. This isn’t always a bad thing, but it can be.
I enjoy my individuality. I like going against the flow or taking a different direction than most other people. Sometimes popular trends are boring and following the crowd is too easy. Self-expression can be empowering, and identifying with a particular label might help you to realize that expression.
